A Home and DIY Blog
Smart home technology never ceases to amaze me, and today I want to share some info with you about a new device we had installed in our home that I am extremely impressed by. Disclosure: This post is sponsored by StreamLabs. All opinions are my own. We had a StreamLabs Control device installed which allows us…
I don’t even know how to begin this blog post so I’m just going to get straight to the point. I am moving to a new home. Chris and I are separating and I can’t afford to keep our current home, so I will be renting a townhome nearby for the time being. Without going…
Ok, this makeover has been a long time coming but I’m thrilled to finally be sharing it with you. This extreme playroom makeover was such a fun project for me, and my kids are absolutely loving the space. I transformed the room into a “tween” hangout space since the boys are getting older (they are…
Yes, another welding project! Today I’m showing you how I made this DIY coffee table with welded steel legs. Now, I don’t necessarily need another coffee table since I’ve built a few recently (like this one and this one), but I wanted to experiment with different leg designs and also get more welding experience under…
I wanted to give you a heads up that starting tomorrow (Tuesday, November 16) I will be posting videos every Tuesday and Thursday for 5 weeks leading up to Christmas! Check out the playlist here. These are smaller crafty type projects, so a bit different than my usual video content but I hope you will…
I am so excited to share this project with you! As many of you know, I learned how to weld a couple years ago and then got away from it for a while. But I recently got a new welder so I thought I would give it a try with this project. Plus, I have…
I’m still in the middle of making over our playroom and turning it into a “tween” hangout, so stay tuned for that full makeover soon! Today I’m showing you how to make a DIY slatted coffee table with hairpin legs, which is one of the projects I did for the room. This is an easy and…
If you’ve followed me for a while then you know that we’ve been having a rental property renovated to sell. If you missed the process you can check out the “before” here and the progress here and here. I also refinished the bathtub (here) and made over the bathroom vanity and countertop (here). I’m excited to share this final townhouse…
I’m currently making over our playroom and turning it into a “tween” hangout space (stay tuned for that makeover coming soon!) and the boys really needed more shelving for books and LEGO sets. I decided to put my own modern “glam” spin on the typically industrial style DIY pipe bookshelf. I love the gold, and…
We are in the process of renovating a rental property to sell, and one of the things that desperately needed attention was the bathtub in the upstairs hall bathroom. It wasn’t in our budget to replace it, so today I’m going to show you how to refinish a bathtub on a budget. The refinishing kit…
With all 3 of my kids home for digital learning, they each need a dedicated work space. Since Jake has been using Jonah’s desk which is just too small, I decided to build him a new DIY plywood desk with hairpin legs. I built Aiden this one a couple years ago, so I wanted Jake’s…
As many of you know, we’ve been renovating our townhouse which is a rental property we are getting ready to sell. Most of the work has been done by contractors, but I took on a few projects myself, including the one I’m sharing with you today. I’m going to show you how to cut out…
